FELIX DOUBRONT RUMORS
Your Morning Dump...Where Doubront is making progress
Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here...
highlighting the big storyline. Because there's nothing quite as
satisfying as a good morning dump.
If Felix Doubront ever figures out how to pitch to his potential on a
consistent basis, he just might turn into a pretty good major leaguer.
As last night made clear, even though he threw well, he’s...
Felix Doubront Keeps Living on the Edge, Which Could Force Red Sox to Get Creative
The Red Sox were in shambles during last week’s mailbag. This time around, things are much more pleasant in Boston.

Felix Doubront's throws VERY wild pitch
MLB.com Red Sox starting pitcher Felix Doubront may have been trying to come inside on the Rays’ Luke Scott. He may have been trying one of those wacky trick pitches that the old-timers whipped out in the black and white blooper reels. Or…or the ball just slipped out of his hands. NESN play-by-play man Don Orsillo called it “not something you see every day.” I wonder...
Video: Is this pitch by Felix Doubront the worst of all-time?
Your browser does not support iframes.Quick, somebody get Boston Red Sox southpaw Felix Doubront a rosin bag.Watch as the hurler loses his grip on a pitch and proceeds to deliver a wild one during the third inning of Thursday's game against the Rays.

Felix Doubront’s Struggles Becoming More Alarming, As Lefty Keeps Failing to Put Hitters Away
BOSTON — Felix Doubront gave the Red Sox 5 1/3 innings out of the bullpen on Wednesday. But to say he provided “relief” would be an unfair assessment.
Allen Webster was roughed up in his second major league start. He didn’t make it out of the second inning, and he came away from the game charged with eight earned runs. Webster isn’t the pitcher to be concerned about, though...
Velo becoming a problem for Felix Doubront

Boston fell 7-0 to the...

We’re talking, of course, about the weak link in the Red Sox
rotation, Felix Doubront, and his inevitable replacement, Allen Webster.

Felix Doubront Not Concerned About Dip in Velocity, Pledges to ‘Just Move Forward’ From Loss (Video)
Felix Doubront allowed six runs against the Rangers, and things could have been a lot worse. The lefty allowed 12 hits in his 3 2/3 innings of work on Friday night, but escaped trouble in the early innings before running into it during a big fourth inning for Texas.
After the game, he discussed a recent dip in his velocity, but didn’t seem all that concerned about it. He brushed...
Felix Doubront Shows Plenty of Resiliency, Which Has Become a Hallmark of Red Sox’ Starting Rotation
If this was 2012, Felix Doubront’s outing might have snowballed, and Boston’s bullpen might have been left to pick up the pieces of another short start. Fortunately for the Red Sox, it is no longer 2012.
Doubront kicked off his fourth start of the season in shaky fashion on Saturday. In the first inning, he gave up a hit, walked three, hit a batter and surrendered two runs while...
